POLINK fatal error when compiling to running exe

Post by Dude »

It's really annoying to get the POLINK fatal error when compiling your exe and the previous version is still already running. :( So, how about the IDE have an option to auto-terminate the process (exe) that's just about to be built? That way we don't have to waste time acknowledging the POLINK error and compiling from scratch all over again. Thanks for reading.

also on compile/run the IDE asks for using the standalone debugger if the programm is already running. an option directly in the dialog to kill and restart the programm would be good.

You could do this with a simple IDE tool as well.
